I've lived downtown since 2001.
I walk to work at UGA.
I only drove 3,000 miles last year, half of that to see my family in Atlanta.
It has been a major pain in the neck to buy groceries and other staples.
That is about to change. This law will greatly improve my quality of life.
It WILL result in no-automobile residents downtown (ones that CAN afford them) and ACTUALLY reduce traffic and parking problems.
Oh yeah, it will be good for Athens and Athens businesses.
Good Job!

posted @ Sunday, May 5, 2013 - 15:49I think part of the reporting problems are due to the fact that local coroners do not want to report suicides to help the family.............not because they are trying to not do their jobs. Many insurance policies will not pay out on a claim if it is ruled a suicide.......they are closer to the family situation and rule accidental or natural causes to save the family grief/embarassment and $$$$$$.

I wish they ate privet..agree with jrtank...Where are the environmentalists? This is a terrible situation.
[quote][b]THX1138[/b] - It's really funny to me how people are up in arms about giving this guy a proper burial. I assume that most of you are conservative Christians. I'm pretty sure Jesus said to turn the other cheek which I would interpret as being respectful to your enemies even when they are disrespectful to you. The bottom line is he does deserve a proper burial. I'm not sure why his family doesn't want to bury him in his own country but that's their decision.

I bet you would feel differently if it was your 8 year old son he blew up..or any of the others who lost limbs.
posted @ Saturday, May 4, 2013 - 16:23@Curls: Excellent question to ask. Top administrator positions across the board at every school should be looked into. From UGA to the technical colleges to our local school districts. Do you think our local technical college needs 7 Vice Presidents?

posted @ Friday, May 3, 2013 - 17:13@Yellow Dog: I agree..Tybee is a unique place. The people that live there are an eclectic bunch, and that is what makes the area so interesting. The outer ends of the beach are the best.

posted @ Saturday, April 27, 2013 - 06:29I am not a landlord, but from what I understand, it takes a mountain of paperwork and a long time to evict someone for whatever reason. Frustrating, at best...but this is a little extreme.

Rep. Regina Quick, R-Athens, was one of two local delegates to score less than an "A+" in the Chamber of Commerce's annual legislative score card. She and I played phone tag Monday when I was reporting the story and I wasn't able to get her comments in a timely fashion. Instead, she sent over this statement Wednesday morning and she did not mince her words. (Links and italicized portions are my own; otherwise, it's as she wrote it.) Dear Friends: read more

The committee opted Tuesday night to put off deciding on the ordinance until, at the earliest, its next meeting. Of note: The Athens-Clarke County attorney highlighted that the proposed times are, in essence, placeholders for the commission to change or keep as it pleases. Full text of the Use of Public Right-of-Ways ordinance draft is below. read more
